"The SJC decision could have wide-ranging ramifications on other private clubs, hotels and spas in Massachusetts that have engaged in the practice of clipping their help of hard-earned income, as Blue Hill CC has done."

100% accurate. Pretty easy call if you're Concert Golf in my opinion.

Not a fan of the no tipping policy at all. Typically service level drops as incentive is removed. Human beings , you know. :-X


There are certain places where it probably is necessary but for me the proofs would have to be very strong. The worry that the "big tipper" gets an edge is way overblown, most likely by the cheapskates (oops  :-X )

Maybe as an ex bag dropper I'm prejudiced but


they know all the tee times and have to handle that end


have access to what's going on in front of you


keep carts running and clean and ready to go


find all my lost "stuff"


can lend you a putter or club or umbrella in a pinch


is the first line of defense and last guy to say goodnight for the club


etc etc etc




I really don't care about my clubs being "swiped" but the bag guys are always important to my day

Rob -

Yes, semantics and contracts are indeed what the law is about.

A misplaced or omitted comma can wind up costing someone a lot of money.  :)

Thank you for changing the font of your posts. It makes them easier to scroll past.

I am not defending any of the club’s actions when I say:


The writer should not be writing news stories about his own club (IMO), unless there is no other reporter who can write them.
